As a collective, JWU students on campus and off have been adhering to state orders and university protocols relating to COVID-19. Your courage and character are on full display. Thank you and stay focused!

We would, however, like to take a moment to remind students of some key expectations for being on campus. As always, our primary goals are to protect the health of everyone on campus and to continue the institution’s mission.

Each day you are on campus, you are expected to complete this questionnaire to screen your current health conditions. This includes the weekends, days off, and non-class days - again, every day you are on campus.

The quickest and easiest way to do this is via the JWU Mobile app.

As we have warned, travel restrictions can and do change at a moment's notice. This is why we advise students to stay on campus and avoid traveling out of state unless absolutely necessary. If you return from a state with a COVID-19 positivity rate of higher than 5%, you must quarantine for 14 days.

If you make the decision to travel outside of Rhode Island, visit health.ri.gov/covid/travel often (especially on the day of your return) for RI's listing of states that are exceeding the 5% positivity rate.
